EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a comparted tray with ribbon handles and various wares, accompanied by a numbered card listing the articles sold by Sarah Thrifty. Created between 1820-40, this mixed media artwork was crafted by an anonymous European School artist and is currently housed in the prestigious Manchester Art Gallery in the UK. The focal point of this composition is a pedlar doll named Sarah Thrifty, meticulously designed with jointed wood and painted features. Adorned in multiple layers including three petticoats, a pink/white striped kerchief, printed bedgown, blue/white check apron, cap, brown stiffened bonnet, red hooded cloak, knitted stockings, and laced boots; she exudes authenticity. Carrying her comparted tray with elegant ribbon handles and proudly displaying her merchandise alongside a numbered card detailing her wares; Sarah Thrifty embodies the essence of an itinerant merchant. With possible German origins and intricate attention to detail evident throughout every aspect of this miniature fashion ensemble; it serves as both an exquisite work of art and a nostalgic representation of childhood playtime. The inclusion of accessories such as cardigans and scarves further enhances the Victorian-era aesthetic portrayed here. Through this evocative image captured by Bridgeman Images for Fine Art Finder's collection; viewers are transported back in time to witness the vibrant world of travel and trade during the Regency period. This enchanting portrayal celebrates not only Sarah Thrifty's entrepreneurial spirit but also highlights the beauty found within thriftiness itself.
